I just installed Debian Bionic - Current Stable Version and it had FF esr installed but i tried to download & install a 2nd. copy but i received the message "This is not a Debian package" not sure of the exact wording but it did not recognize the package as compatible with Debian, both the esr & current FF version for Linux. I tried 2 package installers but neither worked. Anybody have a solution for this ? FF info image is attached.

Those packages are not installer. You have extract them to a folder and start using them the folder.

Sorry for the confusion, but i just noticed a file was missing causing the problem. I could use some help finding + installing the missing file.
